Postfix configuration files DO NOT support comments that follow data on
the *same* line. I hope that this "comment" is just in this message to
describe the rule, and not in the configuration file:

Reply and Reply-All are MUA features, and MUAs just read the message
headers. So you have to stare at the message headers and figure out
where the unwanted addresses came from.
Are you sure you are don't have any uninteded canonical_maps entries
that rewrite the From header?

No, but some systems don't support RFC-822 addresses in which domain-part
is a CNAME, and will rewrite the CNAME to the target domain. This is not
the case for you as "letterpress.cc" is a real domain, and not a CNAME.

The header below shows the correct "From:" address and the correct "To:"
address. If "reply" sends mail to the "To:" address, complain to the
provider of your MUA.
Did you, by any chance configure Gmail to know that
<br...@boxcarpress.com> is one of your own addresses? If so, it may
try to avoid replying to you, by replying to the "To:" address instead,
which is not you. In any case, this thread is closed, the issue has
NOTHING to do with Postfix. You can explore the semantics of your MUA
in another forum.
